Kellogg 10 Year


This past weekend was my Kellogg 10 year reunion back on campus at Northwestern in Evanston, Ill, the suburbs of Chicago. What an awesome time. Again I clearly recognize that you just don't realize how much you need to get away until you do it.
For me the weekend was a great time to reconnect with old friends, faculty and most importantly with myself and my goals.

I got a chance to see the director of admissions for Kellogg at the end of the weekend and I felt the need to simply say, "Thank you so much for my classmates." Kellogg has the reputation of being all about the quality of people and it is so true. There is a bar set high enough that draws exceptional people. Being smart, successful, involved, connected or of a certain social status will not get you into Kellogg. It's not what is in the application but the entirety of you life, and the result is a community that can perform at the highest levels in the business world and also a community of incredibly exceptional people.
I really feel like our class is really involved with improving our world, business community and preparing another generation for the world's challenges with their own families. How in the world did I end up getting such a cool opportunity? Good times, great people.
